The next concert?

When will the next GL concert be?

As I posted on "LIGHTFOOT UNPLUGGED?" I think it will be May 11, 2005. That's one year after "Harmony" release date. Just a wild guess!

Actually it will be in late November of this year in Hamilton provided he has the all clear from his doctors. GL said that himself about a month ago.

Yes! I believe it will be a benefit for the hospital where he stayed. Oh, I am feeling sick! Admit me now so I can get a good seat! lol

May 11, 2005? I still will not have graduated by then. I will have to wait until the one after that, and even then I may not be able to attend because for someone just getting out of school, Canada is a long drive from Georgia . But when there's a will, there's a way.

Speaking of May 11, did you know that in 2000, that was the date that Charlene registered?

I never seen Gordon Lightfoot in concert but am making a promise to myself not to miss the next opprotunity. Would love to see him at Massey Hall. Just wondering if anyone has advice and info on tickets. Eg. whats the easiest way to buy them? How expensive are good, close seats ? How quickly do they sell out? I just want to be prepared when the next concerts are announced. Thx

Aside from a couple of shows in Hamilton Gord's doing as a 'thank you' for the terrific care he received at the hospital there, I expect it will be sometime in 2005 before there are any other concerts scheduled. Gord himself, when asked, said he's shooting for the spring. First venue would probably be home base, that is, Massey Hall in Toronto. Their web site is at http://www.masseyhall.com/masseyhall/home.cfm

No listing yet (their calendar runs through May 2005). I had tickets for the November 2002 show which had to be cancelled due to Gord's illness but have hung onto the tickets as Massey Hall reps have said they will honor them for those who wanted to keep them. Almost everybody has. They've had very few returns. I have seats on the floor level about 8 rows back on the left of center and they were reasonably priced though I can't remember exactly what I paid as I don't have them to hand to check. I ordered through Massey's website and they mailed them to me in the states in good time (plenty of time, as it turned out <g>.)

The question then becomes whether he'll add shows for additional demand (if he's up to it) and where else he may do shows. My guess? Finish the 2nd show in Orillia, maybe the Maritimes, whatever had to be cancelled in 2002. Speculation only at this point.

I heard there were some people on this site that wished to meet me at the next concert. I want to be ready, don't I?

I'll pay your airfare. I'd love to see you there.

Course you'll require hospital care while there so make sure you insurance will cover a Canadian hospital stay . . .

He'll require hospital care because he won't be able to handle all the proper English being spoken to him all at once which will cause his nogen to overheat.
